[Verse 1]
Ephemeral or eternal, where is the divide?
They try to hold you ’til you spiral down
They circle, unravel
Trying to devise a plan to drain you to your peril
Then cast you back to the hell I used to know

[Chorus]
When all the gods lose faith, the cities laid to waste
I will be there, I’ll be your guardian
You’re in my every breath, I’ll give you all that I have left
But I’ll be there, I’ll be your guardian

[Verse 2]
Liars hang in shallow, hiding from the light
And all the cowards count the hours down
There’s crimson on the arrows
The modest dress in white and all the villains
Taunt in whispers, remind you of a hell you used to know

[Chorus]
When all the gods lose faith, the cities laid to waste
I will be there, I’ll be your guardian
You’re in my every breath, I’ll give you all that I have left
But I’ll be there, I’ll be your guardian

[Bridge]
So keep your panicked eyes on me
‘Cause this time we have is all we need to fight eternally
Eternally
Oh-oh, when all the gods lose faith, the cities laid to waste
I will be there, I’ll be your guardian
You’re in my every breath, I’ll give you all that I have left
And I’ll be the one, I won’t leave you now

[Chorus]
When all the gods lose faith, the cities laid to waste

I will be there, I’ll be your guardian (Tonight)
You’re in my every breath, I’ll give you all that I have left
But I’ll be there, I’ll be your guardian

[Outro]
Through the wreck, we leave it behind
I’ll be your guardian
